crypto: we care about privacy and e2ee so we prefer to use telegram

also crypto: we will take screenshots of your telegram messages and post them all over web2 social media

*not all of crypto, and definitely not much of farcaster

i like how durov in the interview repeats that people are smart and that's why they switch to telegram for privacy

when in fact it is the polar opposite: people are stupid enough to believe that the only popular messenger without e2ee is somehow "private"

your tg messages are stored on the servers in plain text

boro has been beating the drum for like a year about how telegram is not e2ee

wondering how we switch to signal as an industry - seems like we won’t 🤷‍♂️

i know and i agree, although i think telegram's current network effects have us locked in

this cast is less about telegram/e2ee and more about crypto's own discrepancy between stated / revealed preference, especially when tribalism arises
